Videos in Youtube are flash videos in FLV player.To embed them in powerpoint we need them in WMV or AVI format.

If your presentation venue is having very good internet connection you can easily buffer the video from youtube,you should use one plugin called YouTube Wizard plug-in from skp.mvps.organd upon installation, this will add a new “Insert YouTube Video” command to your PowerPoint Toolbar.
